With a new decade upon us, certain celebrities are ready to turn over a new leaf. Case in point: YG's recent public apology. Yesterday, the Compton-born rapper took to Twitter to apologize for his old views on the LGBT community.

"It's been brought to my attention that my old views on life were ignorant," YG said. "I apologize to the LGBTQ community for ever coming across like I was anything but respectful and accepting," he continued.

Although it's not clear what exactly prompted the apology or which "old views" YG is referring to, fans on Twitter are speculating the apology came following his public relationship with singer Kehlani, who identifies as queer.
